Jan 11 2006 By Mel Booth, The Huddersfield Daily Examiner

How they rated:

Paul Rachubka Back in the side on a difficult night for keepers because of a blustery wind. Made one crucial save from Billy Sharp Rating: 7/10

Andy Holdsworth Fired a cracking left-foot drive just over and made two very good blocks but failed to clear before the second Scunthorpe goal Rating: 7/10

Danny Adams Was one of Town's better players but taken off so that Mirfin could counter the pacy Taylor. Used the ball really well Rating: 7/10

Martin McIntosh Scored his first goal for the club to rescue a point on the stroke of time and played solidly throughout the game Rating: 7/10

Nathan Clarke Determined display and came up with some timely tackles around the box. Involved in the build-up to the equaliser Rating: 7/10

Tom Clarke A driving performance from the 18-year-old in his first midfield start for the first team. Tackled well and some top runs Rating: 8/10

Danny Schofield Took his tally for the season to nine with a cracking left-foot strike for the first equaliser. Made some useful runs Rating: 7/10

Mark Hudson Promising at times, he hung some clever passes on the wind and broke nicely, especially in the first half Rating: 7/10

Chris Brandon Got in some terrific positions first half and just needed to produce a decent final pass. His place went to Collins Rating: 7/10

Gary T-Fletcher Involved in a lot of very good build-up work in the first half, when he held possession well, he grafted throughout Rating: 7/10

Pawel Abbott Much better display. He was lively and worked hard but missed the best chance of the game on 35 minutes Rating: 7/10

Spotlight on the ref:

Paul Robinson from East Yorkshire infuriated Town's travelling support of 819 by blowing for full time before they could take a corner when Scunthorpe were under enormous pressure. Had Hudson, Brandon and Abbott in the book for late tackles but let a couple of others go which should really have been punished

Scunthorpe: Evans, Byrne, Crosby, Hinds, Rose, Taylor, Baraclough (Sparrow 77), MacKenzie (Goodwin 58), Beagrie, Keogh, Sharp (Torpey 77). Subs not used: Musselwhite and Butler.
